Tips from the community

Have you ever wondered what T. rex breath smells like? You can find out in the Griffin Halls of Evolving Planet at Chicago, Illinois’ Field Museum. You can even meet the dinosaur who once exhaled that foul-smelling breath. This 40-foot-long dino’s name is SUE, and it is the largest and most complete T. rex specimen ever discovered. Craft beer lovers can visit the Field Bistro and sip on Pseudo Sue and King Sue, beers brewed by Toppling Goliath and inspired by SUE the T. rex, or the museum’s first signature beer, Tooth & Claw made by Off Color.
